Hello, could anyone please help me to identify this coin? It seems to be issued by ottoman sultan Mahmud but I don't know if Mahmud I. or II., it could be from Tunisia, its weight is 0,35g and diameter 10 mm. Thanks a lot for any help.

Hello and welcome.

This is an imitation coin made for jewellery purposes. If you search the forum for "imitation Ottoman", you'll find dozens of them come up, in several distinct styles. This one is what could be called "Algerian style". Yours is very similar to the second coin in this thread. It was modelled originally on an Algerian gold coin like this one, though the design (especially the reverse) has devolved over time.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis

It's Sultan Mahmoud for sure...but nothing is said whether first or second..so my best guess would be that this is for the first..otherwise it would mentioned.
